Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1961329A1] A hair removal apparatus (100) includes three plucking rollers (21) configured to rotate on respective roller shafts (22) which extend generally parallel to a skin surface during epilation, each plucking roller (21) having tweezing mechanisms for grasping hairs, and a driver for turning each plucking roller (21) on a rotary axis which is kept generally perpendicular to the skin surface. The tweezing mechanisms pull the grasped hairs out of the skin as the plucking rollers (21) are slid therealong. The three plucking rollers (21) can protrude and retract in a direction generally perpendicular to the skin surface independently of one another and swing in directions along the skin surface independently of one another.
